damned dead links!

Ive recently read about some server farms for germany based sites like studivz.de (germanies facebook) and they alone are secured in the case of a blackout through 3 diesel tanker (this huge ships) engines, where each got a tank of 30000 liter of diesel. and if it cames to a blackout these engines can hold up for 2 or 3 days till almost 100000 liter of diesel are sucked up. the thing is, the heat this engines would create would make it impossible for one of berlins airports to be used, cause these will evoke a heatwall which could interrupt planes behaviour while landing. I think thats sick
